Abstract: A battery pack is disclosed herein. The battery pack comprises an enclosure housing at least one stack of battery cells, and active cooling means configured to blow air over the at least one stack of battery cells in a first airflow direction through the enclosure and a second airflow direction through the enclosure opposite to the first airflow direction. The active cooling means is coupled to a controller. The controller is configured to control the active cooling means to alternate between the first airflow direction and the second airflow direction based on a parameter indicative of the temperature of the at least one stack of battery cells.

Abstract: A battery management system for use in charging a rechargeable battery is disclosed. The battery management system comprises a controller and a temperature sensor, wherein the temperature sensor is configured to provide a temperature signal based on a temperature of the rechargeable battery, and wherein the controller is configured to control a charging current for charging the rechargeable battery based on the temperature signal. In response to the temperature signal indicating that the temperature exceeds a first threshold temperature signal value the charging current is tapered down as a function of increasing temperature.
